A new chapter, a new guild!

So today marks the end of a marvelous two years with Essence, and the start of something special that we hope will last even longer. Adapt is born and largely aiming for the same goals as before, mostly the same leadership including raid leader will take the guild forward with some new faces aswell as old. We look immediately forward to the challenges that Nighthold have on offer. A quick recap of the new guild and it’s goals.

Why The Change?

Its the classic split down the middle im afraid. Some of us were happy with how we were doing while others had a completely different mindset and went about trying to achieve more by throwing around egos and creating a toxic raiding environment. If you look at our Guild Rules page its very clear that respect, being friendly and non elitist are three of the main qualities being promoted about the guild. Unfortunately several officers and raiders began to ignore these rules and it was clear that change was not possible, so we left.

The New Guild

The new guild takes the previous blueprint and remains largely unchanged. Our initial roster is 24 large and we will want to add two healers and two DPS as a starting point for Nighthold. A bit more about our goals below:

Still focusing on two day a week raiding with a core focus on efficiency.

Not quite as hardcore by mindset, to elaborate:

.

Less pressure on performance, less calling out and more focus on enjoying our raiding and sticking to our core beliefs.

On the above note, still aiming for world 300-500 to be an ‘end goal’ maybe not achievable in the very first tier but this is our happy area.

AP and M+ requirements to be made fair, and not exhausting.

Any players who are disrespectful or elitist and ignore the rules will be warned, but also removed if a change in attitude doesn’t materialise.

Heroic raids to remain part of our main raids days and not moved to Friday immediately on mythic release (our alt/optional raid). We want to ensure that our raiders do not feel forced to raid three days a week to collect valuable heroic gear.

Officers who share the same goals from Day 1 and who are helpful and supportive to one another.

Same style of leadership but with a more relaxed approach inside raids.

Thanks for reading and showing an interest in the guild, see you all in Nighthold!
